We all loved the location (easy walk to the riverwalk) and close to family members who live neartby. All rooms were attractively decorated and very comfortable. Kitchen was perfect to help prepare Thanksgiving sides. Best of all, our host was wonderfully responsive and very acommodating when we had a difficlut situation. We would definitely stay there again.

Amazing stay

This was the best vacation rental we’ve ever stayed in! We had a big family (7 adults and 2 babies) staying and it was perfectly sized. It was clean, well stocked and in a very convenient location. The host was amazing!! Very quick with responses and very accommodating. I will be recommending anyone staying in Wilmington to book here. Thank you for the great experience!
